View Source: Help/OldStyleTablePlugin

The **~OldStyleTable** [[Help:WikiPlugin|plugin]] can be used to include tables within a wiki page using the old-style markup syntax for tables. This plugin is included for legacy only. We recommend to use [[Help:Wikicreole#Tables|Wikicreole tables]] or [[Help:MediawikiTablePlugin|Mediawiki tables]] instead. == Usage == {{{ <<OldStyleTable caption="OldStyleTable" border||=2 ||^ *Name* |v *Cost* |v *Notes* | *First* | *Last* |> Jeff |< Dairiki |^ Cheap |< Not worth it |> Marco |< Polo | Cheaper |< Not available >> }}} will get you <<OldStyleTable caption="OldStyleTable" border||=2 ||^ *Name* |v *Cost* |v *Notes* | *First* | *Last* |> Jeff |< Dairiki |^ Cheap |< Not worth it |> Marco |< Polo | Cheaper |< Not available >> Note that multiple **|**s lead to spanned columns, and **v**s can be used to span rows. A **>** generates a right justified column, **<** a left justified column and **^** a centered column (which is the default.) == Arguments == {| class="bordered" |- ! Argument ! Description ! Default value |- | **caption** | Any string | Empty string |- | **border** | Any number | 1 |- | **cellspacing** | Any number | 1 |- | **cellpadding** | Any number | 1 |} == Syntax == Note that within each table cell, //new-style// markup is used. You can only use inline markup --- no block level markup is allowed within table cells. (Using old-style markup wouldn't make much sense, since one can't include multi-line plugin invocations using the old-style markup rules.) == See Also == * [[Help:MediawikiTablePlugin]] * [[Help:RichTablePlugin]] * [[Help:WikicreoleTablePlugin]] <noinclude> ---- [[PhpWikiDocumentation]] [[CategoryWikiPlugin]] </noinclude>
